Ground Beef & Beans
Ground Beef & Beans
This is an old time recipe that is simple and delicious, this is my version of this classic dish.
Ingredients
- 500 grams ground beef, (1 lb)
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cans baked beans, (425 g / 15 oz each)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- ¼ cup ketchup
- black pepper, as desired
Instructions
- Heat a large non stick pan on medium heat, when hot, add the ground beef and diced onion. Cook, stirring and breaking up the beef with a spatula until no longer pink, season with black pepper as desired during cooking. Drain fat from skillet.
- Add remain ingredients and stir together, turn heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Serve with sides of your choice, enjoy.
Notes
Fair cost per serving based on the ground beef.
Variants: 1. Use pork & beans in place of baked beans. 2. Use any canned beans you like, such as white or pinto - just remember to rinse and drain plain canned beans.



I made this again on 16 Oct 2025 and added a can of butter beans, drained, was a perfect addition. This is an easy and enjoyable meal.
